An introductory video helps to connect the recorder, there may be nothing wrong.
It is important that you do not approach it with false expectations for this program, although the promotional video (a girl with his windmill outdoors) wakes added higher expectations. Because this is clear from the outset and the colors are not bad, although they can be highlighted a little brighter than the settings.
But the fact is, a video recording from the eighties looks just exactly like such a from. The image of the first attempts (in our Christmas 1985) was mostly dark, the colors pale, since this program can not really bring out something - whether that can better a special service, I can not judge. So it was the same with other shots that were taken at that time in the open air.
The AutoCorrect is very extreme: If the exposure automatically corrected, the image looks too bright, the colors washed out; stronger than before. The color correction distort the Fraben completely - everything has a clear cold blue tint. Then rather even easily play at the controls.
But one should be aware that from old recordings and not much by today's standards is also extract.
It makes sense to the cutting function, with which it is possible to remove completely destroyed images or unimportant recordings (if the Kamara man filming again in the area). This shortens the footage on the wonderful memories.
